Anti-Japanese heroic righteousness

After the host and guest sat down, Augustine Maris' chatterbox opened.

He told Cao Guoliang that the little devil basically blocked the road in the jungle a month ago, and even the nearby ordinary people couldn't enter without authorization. He only knew that there was the sound of logging and the roar of machines every day. As for what he did inside, They didn't know it at all, and the only thing that was certain was that this jungle was no longer the jungle they were familiar with.

I don't know how many little devils there are in the jungle, but after the national army bombed Subic Bay, a large number of little devils escaped from the front, and it is estimated that there are four to five thousand.

Cao Guoliang had known this information a long time ago. After they entered Subic Bay, they discovered the underground fortress of the island army in the fortification and the tunnel extending several miles behind.

The top was burnt like charcoal, but the tunnel was basically unharmed, but I didn't expect that the little devil could escape so many people.

Under normal circumstances, there will not be too many troops in the shore-based fortress. They are all technical arms such as artillery, light and heavy machine gunners, and there is no need to arrange too many idlers.

If four or five thousand soldiers could escape, their casualties would not be much higher. This fully shows that the little devil is really prepared, and it is even considered that the national army may use napalm bombs.

Especially now that I know that the little devil has been tossing in the jungle for nearly a month from the very beginning, which can also show that the little devil has already determined that Subic Bay will not last long, and has prepared a second line of defense.

Although the current jungle is no longer the original jungle, Cao Guoliang still asked some questions about the jungle.

Density of roads, rivers, woods, etc.

Augustine Maris said that this jungle is an old forest on Luzon Island, but it is not a virgin forest. The nearby entrance is relatively dense, and it is surrounded by mountains, so the roads extend in all directions, and the trees inside are old Years old, hundreds of years old can be found everywhere, relatively thick, and the vegetation is relatively lush, and some vines even have thick wrists.

After entering the jungle for more than [-] miles, it is the largest river in the Philippines, the Cagayan River. The Cagayan River originates from the mountains of New Vizcaya Province and flows into the Babuyan Strait from south to north.

After the heavy rain, the Cagayan River rushes through the forest, the scene is very spectacular, but usually it is very gentle, clear and beautiful, flowing slowly, and the scenery on both sides of the river is also very pleasant.

After crossing the Cagayan River, go forward thirty miles to Manonos, and twenty miles to the south is Manila.

Augustine Maris was very talkative and organized. He not only answered Cao Guoliang's questions completely, but also mentioned some things that he thought would be helpful to Cao Guoliang.

For example, he said that there used to be a Chinese guerrilla group in the jungle, which specialized in activities in this area. In the past, people would often come to their village to exchange some game for some daily necessities. After a large number of little devils entered this area, they disappeared. But Augustine Maris can be sure that they must still be in this jungle, because no one is more familiar with this jungle than them. The little devils have suppressed them for more than a year, so far they are safe and sound, This is the best proof.

This news immediately aroused Cao Guoliang's great interest. It is nothing new that there are various resistance forces in the Philippines, but the key point is that Maris said that this is a Chinese guerrilla. Since they are Chinese, they are trustworthy. If they can Finding them and their familiarity with this jungle will be of great help to the next battle.

On the way back, Cao Guoliang immediately ordered the intelligence officer to contact the senior management of the Central Security Bureau immediately to see if there was any information on this Chinese guerrilla.

At present, the Central Security Bureau has all-pervasive hands and eyes, and Cao Guoliang is very optimistic about it.

Sure enough, as soon as they returned to the camp, the Central Security Bureau sent them an extended message, introducing the guerrilla in detail.

Less than half a year after the island army landed on the Philippine Island, the entire territory of the Philippines fell under the iron heel of the island bandits, the country was devastated, and the lives and properties of the Filipino people and nationals of other countries were seriously threatened.

At this time of crisis, the overseas Chinese living in the Philippines regard the safety of their country of residence as their own responsibility, carry forward the spirit of internationalism, and actively cooperate with the Filipino people to fight against the fascist atrocities committed by the island army.

Soon, the "Federation of Chinese Labor Organizations in the Philippines" was established (referred to as the Federation of Labor Organizations), and issued a declaration of resistance to the island, calling on the majority of overseas Chinese to unite and fight against the island bandits.

Immediately, the Wartime Anti-Island Overseas Chinese Protection Committee was established, chaired by Xu Jingcheng, an overseas Chinese from Jinjiang and an adviser to the "Federation of Labor".Later, according to the development of the current situation, the Overseas Chinese Anti-Japanese Anti-traitor Alliance (referred to as "Anti-Rebellion"), including patriotic overseas Chinese from all walks of life, business, youth, and women, was established successively, and Xu Jingcheng was still the chairman. "Overseas Chinese Herald".

Later, overseas Chinese living in the Philippines and overseas Chinese youths who had joined the Philippine People's Anti-Japanese Army (referred to as the People's Anti-Japanese Army) formally established a group of overseas Chinese anti-Japanese athletes in the jungle of Mandili Village in Central Luzon. The Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army of the motherland are the model armed forces --- Filipino Overseas Chinese Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Detachment (referred to as "Huazhi"), and take the "4" character of the New Fourth Army and the "8" character of the Eighth Route Army as the detachment designation, officially compiled as the Filipino People's The 48th Detachment of the Anti-Japanese Army.

At the same time, they followed the example of the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army, combined with the specific conditions of the Philippines, formulated three major discipline principles, eight requirements and eight points of attention that the detachment members must strictly abide by and implement, and wrote a song full of national indignation and fighting passion. "Song of the Filipino Overseas Chinese Guerrilla Detachment".

Due to the clear tasks and strict discipline of the troops, the team members have established the spirit of bearing hardships and standing hard work, not afraid of sacrifice, closely relying on the local people, and with high morale, they have overcome the problems of shortage of weapons and ammunition, unfamiliarity of place and most of the team members do not understand Filipino. Difficulty.

In the battle of more than two years, it has won successive victories, which not only won the trust and support of the Filipino people, but also inspired the yearning and desire of the patriotic overseas Chinese young people to join the war.

They were not only active in mountainous areas and rural areas, but also fought in villages, towns, fields, and coconut grove swamps. Even in Manila, which was under the strict control of the enemy, they also established a "Huazhi Manila Brigade" engaged in armed struggle in the city.

Their greatest achievement was in the "rainy season offensive" launched by the Philippine Civil Resistance Army last year. They not only intercepted the island army's transport convoy, fought back the enemy's attack, blocked the enemy's guns and rations, but also attacked the enemy's In the barracks, he also killed a staff officer of the Shimamoto Military Region stationed in Luzon on the spot.
